Canada: Atheist wins case against Gideons in schools
Schools in a region of Canada have been forced to change their policies on distributing Gideon Bibles following a challenge by an atheist.
Rene Chouinard took his case to the Human Rights Tribunal of Ontario after he complained about Bibles being handed out at his daughter’s school.
Mr Chouinard said it was biased for his primary school-aged daughter to be offered religious literature, after he received a permission slip for her to be given a Bible.
